Hi - sorry if this has been posted before, I did search "Marriage Based Visas" but I couldn't get results just from this forum - gave me every forum!! (Probably user error) 
So I've found "table 1" on the CDC website and I'm trying to ascertain if the vaccines need to be "current", i.e. do I need a booster (I'm 50)? I know tetanus is needed as my USC wife has a booster every 10 years (we don't in the UK - only when needed), but what about MMR for example? Obv all vaccines fade over time so do I need to have a load of boosters to ensure everything is "current"?
Perhaps the Physician doing the medical will administer any needed boosters, but I expect they will be cheaper from Boots, etc.
So anyone who's been through the medical interview process in the last couple of years - please let me know if I need to "boost"???

The doctor was able to administer them all at the same time (in NYC) but they were expensive. page 12 of the form is probably the best place to start:
